Its nice to preach forgiveness but its another thing to truly forgive.
One piece of advice - don't wait till they're dead because then its all on you and you have no way to get rid of it other than learning to live with it. And it fits like a sportscoat that's a size or two too small.

This makes me very glad that the grudges that I do hold are not against family members. I figure if they are against people that you don't really care about, then oh well.
The one that comes up every so often is an ex-coworker/team leader of mine. She fucked with my work (sabatoge), and tried to get me fired (it didn't happen, thank God). I have absolutely no forgiveness for people like that, and nothing would please me more than to hear of her untimely demise.
Learned to live with it, and it fits me just fine.
